10 Sex-Enhancing Workouts To Upgrade Your Bedroom Performance

Sex is a beautiful thing. It’s full of love, intimacy, and passion. It’s a core driver of human behaviour. It plays a large role in relationships. But everyone can be better at sex, even if not everyone knows how.

Although having deep feelings for someone can make sex great, no matter your physical shape, sex is still a physical act. The better shape you are in, the better you can be at sex. We go to the gym to improve our bodies and everyday life. Why not use the gym to also improve our sex lives?

This is the exercise that will have the most direct benefit to your sex life. Performing these consistently will give you better erections, more intense orgasms, and help you last longer in bed. Once you get the hang of these, you can even perform kegels during sex to help contact her g-spot.

Kegels work the muscles on the pelvic floor, which control bladder and sexual function. These are the muscles that you use to stop peeing when you’re mid pee, or the muscles that you use to raise your penis. Strengthen these and you’ll see a direct carry over to your happiness in bed.

Performing kegels is simple. All you have to do is clench these muscles. Imagine that you’re peeing, and you’re trying to stop mid pee. Or try to raise your penis. Once you get the hang of that, you’re utilising these muscles. Try holding the contraction for three seconds at a time, for three sets of 10 contractions, three times a day.

The best part about these are that you can do them anywhere. You can do them while brushing your teeth, while working at the office, or when you’re between sets at the gym. They’re easy to do, and require absolutely no equipment or hassle.

2. Deadlifts

Everyone’s heard of deadlifts. Most people do them to become strong, or look manly. But many people don’t realise how beneficial they can be to your sexual performance.

Deadlifts primarily work your hamstrings, glutes, core, and back, all of which are very important when it comes to the bedroom.

Think of the work you put in: it’s all thrusting. The technical term for thrusting is hip extension, and that’s exactly what you’re mimicking when you perform deadlifts.

Now, many people are scared to perform deadlifts because they’ve heard horrific injury stories. Any exercise done incorrectly can injure you. The key is to take your time to learn the form, and perform the exercise correctly. You don’t have to use super heavy weight to deadlift. Use what you’re comfortable with and reap the benefits.

3. Squats

Just like the previous exercise, everyone has heard of these.

Squats will help you in a very similar way to how deadlifts help you: through hip extension. These can be very tiring as well, so if you’re performing high reps, you’ll definitely be getting some cardio in as well. And we all know how much that can help in the bedroom.

But another, and often overlooked way, that squats can help your sex life is by getting you used to standing while carrying weight. Many people have the fantasy of having sex against the wall while holding their partner. This is something that requires a great amount of strength and not a lot of people can do this. Squats will develop your leg and back strength to such an extent that you’ll quickly see that holding your partner against the wall isn’t as hard as it seems to be.

Many people are scared to perform these as well, out of fear of injuring their knees. As mentioned before, if performed correctly, squats are 100% safe. Take your time to learn the form, and do not feel obliged to lift heavy weights!

4. Planks

These are a great exercise that will really come in handy while you’re in missionary position. This position can be very exhausting for your arms and abs. What better way to get better at missionary than basically mimicking the movement?

There are many ways that you can perform planks. The first and most simple way is to do a plank on your elbows. The next step up would be to hold it in a push up position. If that get’s too easy for you, then you can hold it while having your hands on an exercise ball instead of the ground. The last variation is the hardest, but also the most effective, and the one that will benefit you the most in bed. Keeping a tight core while your body wants to move around is directly going to benefit you while you’re in missionary position because that’s exactly what’s going on there.
